Gareth Bale has scooped a December double in our monthly awards voted by fans here on Xtra, Twitter and Facebook.

The flying Welshman took the Player of the Month title with 56.7 per cent of the votes - finally toppling Scott Parker, who had won every month so far!

Meanwhile, Gareth's fantastic goal at Norwich, where he picked the ball up from Luka Modric on halfway, sped through the middle and dinked over goalkeeper John Ruddy, was a clear winner in the Goal of the Month award.
